   Is there much point me modifying a 954cc engine & spending around £800 to bump up the bhp from 54 to approx 65? Now for my engine thats about a 20% power increase.

   i've got a 1.0i and best advice i can give is fit a filter and exhaust, will sound better probs no BHP gain, do all the syling mods then drop a VTS lump in it, like what i'm doin!
